Hello everyone,

I’m following up on my earlier post regarding the issue with Dynamic Functions
in OpenCms.

The function appears correctly in the “Add content” list and can be selected,
but it still cannot be dropped into any container — the red dashed drop
indicator never appears.

If anyone has faced a similar issue or has any insight into what configuration
might be missing, I’d be grateful for your guidance.

Thank you very much for your time and support.

Best regards,
Nivedita Sheoran
